2018 Early Voluntary Practices

Posted by Jessica Marcum at Jul 21, 2018 5:00PM PDT ( 0 Comments )

There will be VOLUNTARY practices this coming Monday 7/23/18, Wednesday 7/25/18 and Friday 7/27/18 from 6:30-8:00 at the Buckeye youth practice fields for 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th graders.

If you’re son is interested just show up with cleats and water (no equipment allowed) and we’ll work on stretching, running, cutting, passing, catching, and other fundamental as we get ready for the season. This is a good opportunity to meet the coaches, ask any questions you may have, knock off some offseason rust and have some fun with the boys. You can also drop off their physical evaluation forms to the coaches as well during this time as these must be turned in at or before the first official practice on Monday 7/30.

2018 Season Information - IMPORTANT!!

Posted by Jessica Marcum at Jul 15, 2018 5:00PM PDT ( 0 Comments )

Welcome to the 2018 Buckeye Youth Football Season!

There are several important dates and requirements that need to be met.

Physical Required by Monday, July 30th - Every tackle football player needs to have a completed medical physical prior to starting practice on Monday, July 30th. Your child will not be able to start practice without a current physical form on file. No exceptions. I have attached the form to this email and it can also be found on http://ohsaa.org/Portals/0/Sports-Medicine/PPE_2018-19.pdf . (If you can’t get into your primary care physician, there are several options for sports physicals at walk-in clinics around Medina/Brunswick. Google: “Sports Physicals in Medina, Ohio” and you will find multiple choices.)

Equipment Hand-out (7/15 & 7/22) - Must Attend There are two dates for equipment handout. You need to attend one of the dates. Dates are Sunday, July 15th or Sunday, July 22nd from 6:00PM-7:30PM at the Liverpool Community Center(6801 School St. Valley City, OH 44280). Please bring a bag or laundry basket to collect your equipment. If you played tackle last year please bring your girdle with you so we can fit your pants.

Girdle - Every tackle football player needs a Football Girdle for the season. You can purchase one at any sporting goods store or online (Amazon). If you have one that fits from a previous year, feel free to use it. Practice The first day of practice is Monday, July 30th from 6:30pm-8:00pm. Please have your child wear shorts,cleats, t-shirt, and helmet with formed mouthpiece.

Practice - Practices will be on the youth fields behind Buckeye Primary School. Practice will be Monday through Thursday 6:30pm-8:00pm July 30th through August 31st. Starting September 4th practice will be Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday 6:00pm-7:30pm, through the end of the season.

Games - Games will be Saturdays ranging in starting times from 12:00pm-8:00pm. We will receive a schedule sometime in August from Lake Erie Youth Football League. There will be no Jamboree this season, but we will have a “scrimmage day” on 8/18 that we intend to host and/or participate in. Our first tackle games will be Saturday 8/25 and the Championship games are scheduled for 10/20. More info to come as the season gets closer.

Please call, text, or email with any questions. We are looking forward to another great season.

Go Bucks!!!
